Are Caleb (b. 1739) and Anne Bartlett Jewett parents of Aurelia T. Jewett?
Hello,
I am new to this board and am hopeful that it will be fruitful.
I believe my 3rd great grandmother, Aurelia T. Jewett, may be a child of Caleb Jewett and Anne Bartlett (Marriage #2, Anne Bartlett, Married: 2 JAN 1784). A newspaper article that was published in Auburn, Cayuga, NY, on the occassion of her 90th birthday says that she was born in Sharon, CT, in 1786 and when she was two years old the family moved to New Canaan, NY, and that eighteen years later they moved to Cayuga County. The article and her obituary do not give the names of her parents. There is only one Jewett in the Canaan, NY, census records of 1790 and 1800 and that is Caleb. There is a female child indicated in those records who would have been the age of Aurelia. Then in 1810 Caleb Jewett is in the Mentz, Cayuga, NY census. At that point there are two females under 10 and two females in the 16-28 category. Either Anne had died or she was fudging about her age which happened a lot back then. In 1818 Aurelia married Wheaton Sanders (Yankee family from Rhode Island). Caleb may have died in the decade after the 1810 census because he disappears from the census records. There are, however, records of a next generation Caleb Jewett in the Cattaraugus, NY, area.
Could anyone tell me please if they know where the record is found regardings Caleb's second marriage and is there any information available about Anne's parents? I thought she might be the daughter of Rev. Nathaniel Bartlett of Redding. In a book I found online it mentions him and gives the names his children...and he did have an Anne who would fit time-wise, but no info on who she married or where she lived.
I have quite a bit of data on Aurelia's progeny and also on the ancestors of Wheaton Sanders (spelled Saunders earlier) if you anyone is interested.
I would very much appreciate any responses.
Sincerely,
Evelyn M. Morrison
